The error is in the test case. It overrides the libc memmove() with its own
implementation, but that implementation fails to follow the specification. In
particular, it returns NULL rather than memmove()'s first parameter.
GCC now optimizes based on this aspect of the specification, so things go wrong
at runtime.
Correcting the test case as follows allows it to work with gcc 4.8 and 4.9:
